I was wondering how you all were doing out there. Hope the winds and rain relent soon.

My big Ae Ae leaned over into a lemon tree last fall after we had 50mph winds (heard reports of winds as high as 57mph) so it's staked also, though I should have probably dug it up and moved it into my greenhouse.
